But --check is also producing useful output, which might need paged. So you are sacrificing existing interactive use of --check for scriptable exit-code uses. If you really want the exit code, why not "git diff --check --exit-code"? OTOH, I am not too sad to lose the paging behavior; it would take quite a few whitespace errors to scroll off the screen. -Peff - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
